Looking to buy, or sell, a condominium in Thailand using Thai Baht?

A “Foreign Exchange Transaction” will need to be recorded legally. See our previous article about the Foreign Exchange Transaction.

Here are some of the reasons for this and most of the processes involved. We strongly recommend that you seek out good, professional, advice before buying abroad.

  • The Bank of Thailand controls the flow of foreign currency. Every Thai Baht must have a source and a reason, and the Land Department must perform due diligence, in accordance with this regulation. Every foreign buyer must transfer money from abroad.
  • Non-residents of Thailand, who sell a condominium and transfer the money out of country don’t have to pay the remittance tax. Normally, the tax is around 30%.
  • When transferring money out of the country, the tax-free amount is determined by the initial amount transferred in.
